Aaron wore a plate of pure gold on his forehead engraved "HOLINESS TO YAHUAH" (Exod 28:36-38). The priestly blessing put Yahuah's name upon the children of Israel (Num 6:27), and Ezekiel saw a mark set on the foreheads of the faithful before judgment (Ezek 9:4). In Revelation 7:3, 14:1 and 22:4 the Father's name on the forehead is priestly language, not something stamped on skin: the whole person consecrated, the direct opposite of the mark of the beast, a permanent, public declaration of who they are and whose they are. The name is "his Father's name" (Rev 14:1), one Name, not a threefold formula.
